His argument being reasonable and
acceptable to the scriptures and
celestials, Lord Siva gave
the fruit to him. Arriving at this juncture, and seeing the fruit with Vinayaka,
Shanmuga abused the audience and parents for their wrong verdict. He left the
place much against the heart-rending. appeals of his Mother. Siva tried to
pacify him that he was himself Gnanaphal and there was no need for him to have
another.
Setting aside
every plea, he left saying that he would never dwell in Kailas, but create a
world soon and secure adorers of his own. He then forsock all and turned a
recluse-satisfied with lion cloth and a staff. An ascetic out and out.
